Driving quality together: how OEMs and suppliers transform quality management with Catena-X

KSE GmbH entered Catena-X with support from Cofinity-X and now uses Dataspace OS to exchange company certificates and product-related CO₂ data. Supported by the Data Space Accelerator study, the medium-sized company was able to get started quickly, reduce onboarding effort, and prepare for further data-driven collaboration across the automotive supply chain.

Together with Cofinity‑X, LINDE + WIEMANN has successfully implemented productive PCF data exchange with its OEM partner in Catena‑X. The achievement marks a key step toward scalable Catena‑X adoption and prepares the company for additional use cases.

The Data Space Accelerator supports companies entering Catena-X with up to €30,000 in financial remuneration, structured onboarding, and concrete use cases such as Company Certificate Management, Product Carbon Footprint, and Traceability.
